Chicken and Leek Pie
Recipe By :Nancy VE
Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Casseroles Chicken/Turkey
Pie
Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 tablespoons butter
1/3 cup onion -- diced
1/2 cup celery -- cut on bias
1 cup leeks, whites only -- cleaned and diced
1 pound chicken breast, boneless -- cubed
2 tablespoons flour
1 1/2 cups chicken stock or broth
1/4 cup parsley -- chopped
2 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon thyme
pie crust, enough for a two crust pie
1 egg -- beaten
Melt butter in a large skillet.
Add onion, celery and leeks. Saute until tender (10-15 minutes on medium heat).
Add cubed chicken meat and continue cooking until chicken is tender.
Sprinkle with flour and stir well.
Add stock, parsley, salt, pepper and thyme.
Bring to a boil and cook for 3-5 minutes.
Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
Preheat oven to 400º.
Now there are two ways to proceed.
I like smaller pies, so I use Corningware Grab-It bowls. Line 2-3 of these with pie crust (I use 3 because I don't like them quite as full. If you do three, you may need more pie crust). Spoon filling into dough-lined bowls. Top with more crust and cut a hole in center of pie. Brush with egg. Bake 20-25 minutes or until crust is golden brown and filling is hot.
The other way is to make one larger pie. Line a 2 quart casserole dish at least 2" deep with pie crust. Spoon in filling. Top with more crust. Cut hole in top. Brush with egg. Bake 25-30 minutes until crust is golden brown and filling is hot.
Allow pie(s) to rest 10 minutes before serving.

Cake
1 1/4 cups flour
3/4 cup sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1/4 cup water
3 large eggs -- separated
3 tablespoons grapefruit juice
1/2 teaspoon fresh grated lemon peel
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
Frosting
16 ounces cream cheese -- softened
2 1/2 teaspoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon freshly grated lemon peel
4 drops yellow food coloring
1 cup confectioners' sugar
2 cups grapefruit segments (from Ruby Reds)
candy confetti -- garnish
Oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease 2--8" round cake pans.
Cake: Mix flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Make a well in center. Put oil, water, egg yolks, grapefruit juice and lemon peel in well.
Stir liquid to mix, then stir with flour mixture until blended and smooth.
Beat egg whites in a medium bowl with mixer on high speed until frothy. Add cream of tartar and beat just until stiff peaks form when beaters are lifted.
Using a rubber spatula, stir 1/3 of the beaten whites into batter, then gently fold in remaining whites just until blended.
Divide between pans, smoothing surface.
Bake 20 minutes or until cakes spring back when lightly touched in center. Cool cakes in pans on wire racks for 5 minutes. Run a thin knife around edges of cakes. Invert on racks to cool completely.
Frosting: Beat cream cheese in a large bowl with mixer on medium speed until smooth and fluffy. Add lemon juice, lemon peel and food coloring.
With mixer on low speed, gradually add confectioners' sugar, beating well until blended. (Frosting will be soft and airy.)
Finely chop enough grapefruit segments to measure 2 tablespoons. Gently stir into frosting.
To assemble: Place one cake layer on a serving plate. Spread top with 1/2 cup frosting. Cut enough grapefruit segments into thinner wedges to cover frosting. Top with second cake layer. Frost top and sides.
To serve: Garnish with remaining grapefruit segments and candy confetti.
